It was just a joke because @MrSMW has switched back and forth between systems (cameras) a few times in the past couple years. No offense intended. 

Except he hasn’t.

As above, in 25 years, I’ve only been in 3 systems, albeit a few side dalliances from time to time trying out a few things, but have never flip flopped between systems.

I have had many many cameras over that time, but 90% of them have been upgrades to new models within a system as most full-time pros tend to do.

The only exception to that has been the last 1.5 years when I bought a Sony and a Nikon because L Mount was frustrating me in that regard, both in the body and in the lens department, but more in the lens.

There are still 2 holes within L Mount regarding lens IMO, but within the last 1.5 years, they have also popped out a couple that addressed some of my needs.

I was also a little guilty of buying into the  ‘L Mount is dead, Lumix won’t be making any more cameras’ line that many were spinning a year or two back and so 🤷‍♂️

But switched back and forth between camera systems… Mentally, many times and talked about hypothetical options, yep, guilty as charged, but flip-flopped like a YouTube shillster, nope.

And no offense taken. I’m just having a moment on my soap box in denial of the accusation 😘

For the first time I got my hands on an S1 II yesterday, just in a shop. All my initial suspicions are correct, it's a second rate sensor in a very plasticky cheap feeling body. Not impressed at all with the way it feels in the hand given the lofty price tag.
